I'm Method trained. How is this character like me? What does she think of her mother? What does her mother think of her?

I have never had so much fun as in Montreal. I taught the kids French, I baby-sat, I went to school, I was a receptionist at a hairdresser's, I danced and drank all night. I found that the more you do, the more you have time to do... it's weird, non? ↗
